Rat

Rat from the comic strip "Pearls Before Swine" by Stephan Pastis is an insensitive character whose interactions with others are typically sarcastic and condescending. Rat is known for being self-centered, insulting, and sometimes violent in his interactions. If you're looking to bring this character to life, no supports are required if you have the right filament colors. The completed model stands 130mm tall after assembly and is in proportion to the Pig and Crocodile models from the comic strip. This model requires no supports during printing. To achieve the best results, use a high-resolution printer with a resolution of .2mm and infill of 10%. The Rat model can be printed with the following filament colors: Black for eye_lefteye_rightarm_leftarm_righttail_nose_legs, Grey for body_back_body_front, Yellow for base (optional), and any color for hidden piece body_bumps. Printing Tips: 1. No supports are required during printing. 2. A brim can be used on a few pieces if desired, but use your discretion based on preference. 3. The eyes pieces may be interchangeable due to the design, but they were not modeled as perfect mirrors. 4. To achieve the best-looking model, clean your brims thoroughly after printing. 5. Be cautious when handling the arms, as they may require some cleanup due to the tight fit with the body. Assembly Tips: 1. A diagram in the pictures section can help guide assembly and is quite straightforward. 2. The model is designed to be glued together using a strong adhesive. 3. Take care to clean off any first-layer 'squish' or added brim before assembling the model. 4. Use E6000 glue for optimal results, as it dries quickly but allows for a two-hour working time. 5. The model stands stably on its own, but an included base can provide extra stability if needed.
